<cfscript> tag is required to indicate to the server that you are about to provide CF Script. So everything between the <CFSCRIPT> and </CFSCRIPT> tags is interpreted as script. Otherwise, if you don't have that, the CF Server doesn't know to interpret the text as script and would simply display it to the screen.
<cfscript> .... your cf script code goes here .... </cfscript> -----Original Message----- From: John Barrett [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, October 08, 2012 12:04 PM To: cf-newbie Subject: new cf Script style Hi, I am starting to learn the new cfscript style for cfcs, and I was wondering if there are any books that go over this? I thought maybe CFWACK volume 3 might(if you have it, please let me know). Or if there are any tutorials for this, please point me to them. Also, why when I see examples on-line they use both styles <cfscript> component{ /** * @hint This is a hint * @arg1 This is an argument hint * @arg2 This is another argument hint */ public void function myFunc(string arg1='default', numeric arg2) { return TRUE; } } </cfscrtipt> maybe they are using the tags for highlighting, as I can't figure out why they would use both styles. thanks so much, Johnny ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-newbie/message.cfm/messageid:5925 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-newbie/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-newbie/unsubscribe.cfm
